Ever get that feeling like life’s handing you a slightly lopsided apple cart, but you’re too curious—and a little stubborn—to just leave those rolly apples in the ditch? Well, buckle up buttercup, because this weekend’s Virgo-Libra lunar dance is stirring up exactly that kind of delicious, neurotic chaos. Mercury’s sashaying through Libra while Venus lounges in Virgo—like two long-lost frenemies finally seeing eye to eye—casting a soft, mutual glow that’s part charm, part “let’s fix all the clutter before it fixes us.” Meanwhile, Mars, nearing the edge of Libra, is throwing a quasi-fit after tangoing with retrograde Chiron; the cosmic memo? Slow your roll, gather your meticulous nuts and bolts, and yes, yes—resist the urge to slap on that metaphorical fresh coat of paint before you’re ready. Think of it as laying down the foundation for the ultimate glow-up—one that might involve a little weirdness, a pinch of self-support, and a heavy dose of belly laughs at the absurdity of trying to get everything perfect. So, where does this new moon eclipse land in your chart, and are you ready to roll up those sleeves and paint your life’s next big chapter—one painstaking stroke at a time? LEARN MORE
It’s a big-time Virgo weekend with a wee bit of Libra tucked onto the end for good measure with a shot at balance. Virgo ruler Mercury is now in Libra, and Libra ruler Venus is sitting pretty in early Virgo. The two rulers of this weekend’s Moon signs are now in mutual reception, a gentle, complimentary glow.
Mars is also in Libra, but it’s approaching the end of the sign. After its opposition to retrograde Chiron in Aries this week, Mars’ drive is now putting context to the week’s events. Don’t know quite where to start at the moment? Give it time. The Virgo Sun opposes retro Pisces Saturn, exact Sunday night, and Mars moves through a quincunx to Saturn as well. Take the time to address obstacles fairly and with gravitas. Laying a foundation, even in metaphor or in principle, is meticulous work. Rushing won’t help in the long run. Gathering the details is part of the process.
Friday night, the Moon in Virgo makes its way unimpeded through the early to mid degrees, cruising off a conjunction to Venus and a punchy square from Uranus in the morning. An upset apple cart with rolly apples everywhere? Maybe you don’t want those apples anymore since they landed in a ditch. Realistically, it could be anything unusual that intersects or upends your preferences.
The mood has jangle, but it also keeps things fresh. It’s not at all subtle and it definitely indulges a craving for novelty. Moving past that punch, we have Virgo Venus at the point of a yod from retro Saturn-Neptune and retro Pluto, and Venus itself tightly squares retro Uranus in Gemini. Do we want something different? Different facts, different narrative? Criticism and perfectionism hit hard. BUT, we’re still building a foundation. Consider what doesn’t belong just as much as what does.
Saturday night, the Virgo Moon crosses the south node to sextile Jupiter in Moon-ruled Cancer. Bright and shiny brings hope and relief. The ability to launch into satisfaction is a huge relief. Can you be satisfied? That’s something to address within. Bigger picture thinking goes along with this and settles the tummy. Look for the possibilities that fit your own picture of success.
Sunday morning, the Moon in Virgo moves through a quincunx to retro Chiron on its way toward the end of the sign. It’s certainly a gauge of where you are as you head into the eclipse, how well you’re handling this wild basket of “growth”. As Moon-Chiron slips away, Moon-Sun asserts itself by midday.
“It’s always darkest before the dawn.” Do things feel dark? Why? What’s dark about them? What do you need in order to brighten up the narrative, to pave the path to a healthy life? Though the new moon eclipse takes place at the very, absolute end of Virgo (last degree, last minute) and opposes retro Saturn-Neptune closely (across the Pisces-Aries divide), this lunation is steadied by out of sign trines to retro Uranus and retro Pluto, both in air. a grand trine, a kite.
The stage is set for transmuting troubles into a brand new reality. A healthy reality. A life that slaps, bends, then sits up and says, “Hello! Where have you been all my life?” If it doesn’t feel real just yet, suspend disbelief a bit and give yourself more time. It may still be in the cocoon stage. This doesn’t just happen. In Virgo and containing retro Saturn, there’s going to be work and proving your mettle.
Forget about cutting corners or getting someone else to paint the fence. BUT, if you’re willing to pick up a paint brush, you may be able to find support as you are willing to support others. And it’s okay to make it weird. Be the change of underwear you wish to see in the world!
The lunation takes place at 29 Virgo midday on Sunday. Where does the new moon eclipse hit your chart? Are you ready to put your hard won talents to use in a brand new way?
